Updating the plugin for the new Domoticz Python Plugin Standards wasn't too difficult.

Everything is all good again.

I posted this before reading about the framework change. http://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic ... 65&t=17554

I'll need to update it to conform to the new standard.

This thermostat is different from others in that it has both local API capability as well as a cloud service. This plugin is for accessing the local API. I've now been using it for several months without issue. https://github.com/getSurreal/Domoticz-Venstar-Thermostat-Plugin https://smile.amazon.com ...

Not sure how to pass username and password through the script and not typically good practice to add credentials into a script. I suggest adding an exception for your domoticz server to be able to connect to itself without a password. This is in the domoticz settings system tab.

There are a few working methods already for integrating Domoticz and Alexa. The simplest I had found was using HA-Bridge https://github.com/bwssytems/ha-bridge . The nice thing about it, is that it simulates a Phillips Hue so Alexa can discover your devices locally without any cloud service. There ...

@Dnpwwo has a nice little function in his examples for only updating devices when there is something different. This is a great idea, but for devices that may go a while without anything changing, they will go offline. Here's a small update to that function which will make an update before the ...

@Dnpwwo Thanks for that explanation. That is very important to know and understand. In that case I would say the the plugin repository would need to review plugins and reject them if they don't meet the criteria. That's kind of unfortunate that plugins won't be included with Domoticz. If I wrote it ...

@Dnpwwo I had saw a new update available and thought it was in there, but now I see #1336 is merged and it is working for me. We all very much appreciate the work you're putting into the plugin module. I think a lot more devices will get supported much more quickly. Couple more questions for you ...

@Dnpwwo Thanks for your help. onMessage is now getting triggered. My problem now is parsing it. When using urllib, the response was clean json, but when using Data.decode("utf-8", "ignore") there is some extra information and json.loads does not handle the extra data being in there. Is there some ...

Found it!

In source code

I guess I should have mentioned that I already looked there. It only shows devices that already exist, which was helpful for some, but I'd like to see the list of all available options. I figure since the full mapping list doesn't appear to be in the database, it must be in the code somewhere, but I ...

I've created this GET request and tried setting the protocol to both HTTP and JSON, but onMessage never gets triggered. I've tried url with and without the full path. And I've tried it with and without the headers. url = 'http://'+Parameters["Address"]+'/query/info' headers = {"Connection": "keep ...

I'm looking for a reference where I can find all the device Type and Subtype IDs. Anyone know where I can find it?

I didn't know what DZvents was at first. In this case I don't think that script should go in the same place on the wiki and just kept with DZvents.

I do need to look more into DZvents though. Looks nicer.

Posting it there could help others in the future. I don't know if it needs to be run differently, but right now it doesn't work for me. I get the following error. Error: EventSystem: Lua script test did not return a commandArray If it works, it could have saved me a lot of time vs rewriting the ...

Added a new script option for getting notifications for low battery status of devices. https://www.domoticz.com/wiki/Battery_level_check This script will execute once a day at the time that you specify. It will check all your used devices and send an email with a list of all devices below the ...

Oh man! So simple. Thanks! Does that mean it doesn't matter what the script is named, you just select what you want to trigger it? From piecing together everything I've read from the wiki and forum, I thought it had to have a specific name. Maybe that's the way it used to be and the drop down was an ...

I have a script_time script that executes every minute as expected, but it also executes every time there is a status change. I'm adding more and more mysensors nodes so now my script is executing every few seconds which I don't want/need. If I disable mysensors it goes back to every minute. But it ...

FYI, a recent beta release changed the existing "door lock" to a "door contact", then added a new "door lock" option which no longer shows the lock inverted.
